What is Americanism?
1.
Any American-ized word or phrase, such as changing the spelling of words to sound as they mis-pronounce them, using 4 syllables or words where 1 would have sufficed, or inventing a new word or phrase because it sounds nicer (most commonly heard whenever they are 'fighting for peace' again).
Color, Armor, Boro, Aluminum, Leftenant (??), putting Z's instead of S's in words, or using clunky acronyms because they make a meaningful word (Arrogant American Alliance with Rightwing Goverments against Hope!, or Aaargh!)
Weapons Of Mass Destruction (Nukes), The Road Map (Plan), Freedom Fighters (terrorists we like), Terrorists (anyone we don't), Terrorist Suspect (anyone), Liberating <insert name of latest militarily inferior country that has weapons we supplied and something we want> in the Name of Peace and Democracy (slaughter and pillage <name>), Anti-American (anyone who disagrees), Anti-American Activist (anyone that tries to stop us), Our Friends and Allies in Europe (anyone with nukes), 9/11 (oops, apparently having nukes doesn't make you immune to retaliation), Pulling Together in the War for Democracy! (so c'mon England, lets make some NEW enemies!).
2.
antonym of
1) Removing of vowels from the spelling of letters because the speakers accent does not pronounce them. See
2) A British design that lost all meaning when American .."integrity"... took it to mass production and cheapened it.
1) Program, armor, color, ton, elevator, prostitoot, ect.
2) Machine guns----> German
automobiles---> German
computers-----> still not effective
Sports cars- British invention with the Vauxhall Prince Henry in 1910. In 1911, the USA responded with the mercer Raceabout, and did not make another until the trials of the
corvette in 1953. In 1921, General Motors, who had been pushing crappy cars for a few years, took over vauxhall and turned them from beingBentley 's biggest rival toFord 's biggest rival in the UK. Merged with 1926 acquisitionopel to sell on continental Europe.
Of course, the 'vette is crap, as most other american cars are (some exceptions built in small numbers.)

"Look, it's a pontiac monaro!"
(note that a Manaro is an australian car, a shitty one at that, but NOT a pontiac)
